Items in the collection include strawberry fruit tarts, sets of churros that are paired with a chocolate sauce for dipping and German-style cakes that are topped with yellow frosting. Across the premium collection of treats, high-gloss sweets are used to adorn the desserts and snacks to add extra sparkle and shine.

To reflect the fact that these premium sweets stand apart from its range of other offerings, FamilyMart is setting its Jewelry Sweets up in dedicated in-store areas. These sophisticated sweets also come with price tags to match their jewelry-inspired branding.
